Joel and Ethan Coen follow their austere, Oscar-winning No
Country for Old Men with a goofball farce about sex, politics
and gross stupidity. Hey, the brothers tagged Fargo with
The Big Lebowski, so who's complaining? George Clooney
plays a horn-dog treasury agent out to retrieve an incriminating
disc that rogue CIA agent John Malkovich left at a gym run by
Frances McDormand and Brad Pitt, both with blond hair and shit for
brains. "It's part of my trilogy of idiots," says Clooney,
referring to his work with Team Coen on O Brother, Where Art
Thou? and Intolerable Cruelty. Can't wait.
